If you have been playing for a while you might of noticed the loss in speed when trying to auto-bhop at very high speeds. You might of also heard the phrase "just be smooth". There is a reason why you start to lose speed when strafing at high speeds, though this affect can be negated with the techniques suggest in this thread.
The Mechanics Of Strafing:
Below is a video which describes air strafing in CS:GO well. I'm sure you already know the basics but this video will go in depth into air acceleration and strafe jumping which are intermediate topics.
Air Strafing To Keep And Gain Speed:
Have you ever wondered why turn binds are so effective? This is because the speed at which the turn binds automatically moves your cross hair across the screen, is the perfect speed to increase and keep speed when auto-bhopping. This means that when you are manually controlling the strafing it is best to aim at the speed of turn binds to be "smother" and lose less speed when above 1000 units per seconds.
Turn Binds To Keep And Gain Speed:
We have already discussed manually controlling air strafing, and the speed at which you should aim. But nobody is perfect and keeping the correct speed when manually strafing is extremely difficult so turn binds in my opinion is a better option when available. It is the better option because it is the best way to increase and maintain speed. To set up a turn bind simply put this command in console: bind [key] "+left"
Remember that you still have to press d (if using wasd) to strafe it's not totally automatic.
Using turn binds to their full advantage is quite advanced and is rarely seen in combat surf, I think that "Sacci" is one of the best to watch because of his mastery of these binds.
Using Boosters To Gain Speed:
Boosters is an extremely common way for people to increase their speed, and chaining boosters with turn binds to increase speed is also very common. Hitting a booster every 20 seconds or so can maintain your speed without having to think of being smooth when strafing. Some of the best surfers will chain different boosts many times a round to stay at a very high speed and doge all incoming bullets.
Conclusion:
Thank you for reading and I hope that this thread wasn't too confusing. Any questions or queries either personal message me or leave a reply!
I have a admin application by the way. Please give me feed back with a +1, -1 or 0 to help the admins decide!
Why should you be an admin on this server? I love the Invex community and have felt strongly about being an admin on this server for some time now, as a few people on the server know. As some/most of the admins have either left the servers have a few problems with mic spammers, Ragers, people breaking rules. Since my demotion i have noticed that the Jb admins are swamped with rule breakers (almost overwhelmed at times) which has caused a few rule Breakers to go unpunished.I only wish to help the community deal with said rulebreakers
I know my somewhat recent actions aren't the most favorable in this situation but all i can really say is that I SWEAR to you all i have turned over a new leaf and i will NEVER return to my old ways if u guys give me one more chance i promise to do everything in my power to |Regain your trust and to help maintain order on the Jb server.
Is it possible to create like a small box listing of all the available admins or staff members example: Byte and Rem online so it would be easier to contact you and let's say if there was chaos on a server ( Jailbreak as an example ) and Josh is online and available because it says in the box you can quickly contact him to get it via Invex PM
I have been playing for a while and I know the current and previous admins. I would love to become an admin and I would like to improve Invex gaming as a community and an experience. I have also met almost all of the criteria which gives me a greater chance to become an admin .Thanks, and I hope no recommendation is okay!
I would also like to ask for an exception to my age because I feel I am mature enough to compensate.
I think Jynxx said he would recommend me!
Pluses:
-I know C++
-I have been playing for 8 months
-Until about 1 month ago I was very active on combat surf
-Until about 1 month ago I was very active on the forums posting useful threads
A common concern regarding my application is my activity as of late. I have been quite inactive for the past month and i think i should explain why. Below is a list of reasons why I haven't been on so much. They are now all fixed which means I can be on a lot more!
-Trying to set up the NBN (god damn Telstra)
-Family issues
I plan on being proactive, in the forums and the servers!
I will also say that I can fit the role of Admin between 4-6 pm because i feel that there are lots of players and not a lot of admins in that time frame!
